Exercise 1
Polly appreciates the opportunity to .
Polly appreciates the opportunity to compose a letter by hand.
compose a letter by hand: Polly writes that she "always enjoys a chance to improve her script and cursive writing". Both "script" and "cursive" refer to writing styles which are handwritten. Polly is writing by hand because she is unable to use her email due to the technical problems at Delavigne.
practice her spelling: Polly never writes about her spelling. She expresses that writing by hand is amusing for her because she does it infrequently.
write a formal English letter: Although Polly is writing a letter, there is no indication that it is a "formal English letter". In fact, from the context of the letter, we can assume that the letter is actually informal.
reprimand Bob in a letter: This is not true. Although Polly is at times sarcastic in her letter, she does not reprimand Bob for any reason. Nor does she suggest that she appreciates the opportunity to reprimand Bob.
